O God, we bear the imprint of your face
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #254 (2005) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in mission and service; Our Response to God in mission and service Lyrics: 1 O God, we bear the imprint of your face:
the colours of our skin are your design,
and what we have of beauty in our race
as man or woman, you alone define,
who stretched a living fabric on our frame
and gave to each a language and a name.
2 Where we are torn and pulled apart by hate
because our race, our skin is not the same;
while we are judged unequal by the state
and victims made because we own our name --
humanity reduced to little worth
dishonoured is Your living face on earth.
3 O God, we share the image of your Son
whose flesh and blood are ours, whatever skin,
in his humanity we find our own,
and in his family our proper kin:
Christ is the brother we still crucify,
his love the language we must learn, or die. Scripture: Acts 17:26 Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 1

of their succeeding race.

till all our wanderings cease,
and at our Father's loved abode

our humble prayers implore;
and thou shalt be our chosen God,
and portion evermore. Scripture: Genesis 28:20-22 Languages: English Tune Title: SALZBURG (HAYDN)
